Provision of support to the development process of the Mobile Protection Unit service project: facilitation and translation
APPLICANT: AMEL ASSOCIATION & SAMUSOCIAL INTERNATIONAL
I. Context of the mission
For several decades, Lebanon has been facing a political and socio-economic crisis that has resulted in a high number of unemployed workers and people unable to meet their basic needs. Since the end of 2019, there has been a sharp worsening of this crisis, including the resignation of the government in October 2019, overlapping with the health crisis of COVID-19, the explosions of August 4,2020, as well as unprecedented inflation. The lack of the social protection system for the Lebanese contribute to the marginalization of a segment of the population.
To address these needs Amel Association International (Amel) and Samusocial International (SSI) launched in 2017 a pilot Samusocial-type support system for the most vulnerable people in the southern areas of Beirut, many of whom have fled the Syrian conflict.
As part of a partnership and financing agreement with the State of Monaco for the implementation of the project "Fighting social exclusion in the southern suburbs of Beirut", from January 2020 to December 2022, Amel and the SSI are setting up a project to provide care and medico-psychosocial support to children and young people in situations of exclusion as well as their families in the South of Beirut, but also to strengthen the knowledge and technical capacities of the actors concerned by the response to situations of social exclusion in the southern districts of Beirut. The service provided with these people in situations of exclusion is based on a mobile device to ensure a response both global and individualized to situations of exclusion, as close as possible to the communities, in particular through support and referral to relevant structures adapted to the needs and requests of these people.
As part of this project, it is therefore planned to produce a service project document of the Mobile Protection Unit. In the longer term, this project service will be an internal and external communication tool. It will make it possible to clarify, in a participatory way, the MPU’s mission within Amel, while facilitating its visibility to the partners of the operational network.
